Santa Paula, CA asked in Landlord - Tenant for California

Q: I amended my answer to UD and asked for jury trial. Will they have changed court date because i cant find it in calendar

I filed my amend on the 17th and they notified me I had trial on the 24th which I was never notified about before, but I am unable to find my case on that court date provided is it possible that they had to change it due to me asking for a jury trial?

by the way, I’m in Ventura County

A: Good question!

1. Requesting a jury trial often changes the court process and schedule.

2. It's possible the court date has been changed due to your jury trial request, as jury trials typically require more preparation and a different court setting.

3. The fact that you can't find your case on the calendar for the previously provided date (24th) suggests there may have been a change.

To resolve this uncertainty, I recommend:

1. Contact the court clerk's office directly to inquire about your case status and any updated court dates.

2. Check if there's an online case information system for Ventura County where you can look up your case.

3. If you have an attorney, consult with them about the status of your case.

4. Keep an eye out for any official communications from the court regarding schedule changes.
